In The Round

 
Another class project.....but it was fun.  I like order - and this design keeps flowers very orderly.......did I mention that I like order?
 

 
This design makes a lovely and round centerpiece.  Unfortunately it's NOT what I have to make for my Final Project......I have to do a long and low Horizontal piece (they're HUGE).....I'll be sure and post that creation next month.....flowers are such fun!!

Fall Flowers



Certainly the red wall as a background isn't that great.....but oh well - gotta love my red wall!! 

Here's something Creepella and whipped together - I had the orange tulips from earlier in the week and the mini pumpkins were left-overs from Halloween.  Between the two of us we had a couple of scarecrows and gourd picks...Creepella had some of the beaded garland and silk leaves in her (clearance) stash and yesssssss, I do happen to have a nice little collection of holiday fabrics.  Oh and the mandarins are from our tree (yum!). 

Kinda of cool to be able to whip up something as quickly and easily as we did this - I guess we're just a couple of crafty-girls!

Thanksgiving

Sparkly leaves..................................

And yarn pumpkins......................
 
 
 
It must be Thanksgiving.........................!!  Stamps by CTMH, leaf border & glitter by Martha, Ribbon - Michaels? and twine from A Muse.  Yarn is inexpensive Red Heart (I used "carrot" and "bone") - and the instructions for the yarn pumpkins can be found here.  They'd make a cute garland but since I had extra I just sort of tossed them about AND I made mini-pumpkins.  Of course at Creepella's request I also made some white pumpkins.  Super simple - a good "watching T.V." sort of craft.
 
Hope your Thanksgiving is wonderfully filling.................
 
Toodles,
Kathy

Home Sweet Home


Sparkly detail in the corner adds a bit o' fun to this oh-so neutrally card...


Here's another handy-dandy card from a CTMH Workshops On The Go.....and wow - I'm loving this beautiful "Huntington" paper pack too.  For this card I used most of the neutral designs, and man, it's so hard to CHOOSE which side to use.....it sets my Paper Hoarding into a panic mode.  But I DID use it!!  This card is a "Congrats on your new home"...

All items from CTMH....except the ribbon - that's from Michael's from years & years ago......
